Deviated Instinct as we all know were part of the underground anarcho-punk scene in the eighties but evolved into very much their own infamous style. With a more metal, gritty bass ridden sound and along with others invented crust. When listening to them I can’t but help think of the early crust scene. The album contains four songs, which ''Architect of Misery'' - masterpiece!!!

Fucking hard and brutal assault against the government, politics, social institutes, religion and the so-called dream of success, fame and wealth through thrift and hard work. Modern slavery is the enema of our modern world. Stop thinking out of the box. Follow your leaders. Obey. 100% pure. HARD RESISTANCE continue with their crusade against all traditions- no compromises. HARD RESISTANCE have developed their own form of Hardcore / Punk with Crustcore elements, hard hitting riffs and up tempo songs what results in a massive wall of sound with an aggressive vocal in the mix.

At long last the vinyl version is out from Orange County's own; The Voids. By far their best release! For all fans of early 80's Hardcore / Punk / Rock (Vice Squad, Red Scare, Human Therapy) as well as the Expelled (a little) will LOVE this! Relised by DR STANGE RECORDS

Fuck! The new album from Swedish D-beat / Crust band M:40 - definitely the best record of this band ever! This is their first new material since 2008. What can I say.... They are extreme, they are so fucking raw, and this is the best they have done so far. My favorite tracks is the ultra fast "Livslång väntan", the desperate "Väck mig vid slutet" and the dark hardcore crust song "Avfall".

My god!!! Forget all rubbish that is called the new birth of Thrash Metal, this is the Dutch band Collision and by far they just released the best thrash release in this year! These guys definitely have developed over the years, where the intense grindcore of their star ting years was later on injected with a humongous dose of thrash and humour, a sound they now have perfected with their new album “A Healthy Dose of Death”. Old school Crossover as performed by D.R.I., Wehrmacht, Cryptic Slaughter, add some 21st century intensity (and end up a bit in the vein of Municipal Waste), and add a healthy dose of Slayer, then cram it into the ever-blasting blender of grindcore.

TOUCHED BY NAUSEA is a 5 piece D-beat / Crust / Punk band from Johannesburg, South Africa. In my opinion one of the best Punk / Hardcore band with Metal influence! They message is basically to aware people of things that go on around them that they might not be aware of already ''(we don't know everything like other bands and people do)'' - the corruption of the government, corruption of politics, corruption of religion, money greed, hate and all negative side of life. Excellent production and fantastic male / female vocals!

Finally! Long awaited album from Serbian Crust / Punk band is here! 21 songs of angry and dirty crust-hc which 18 original and 3 tribute songs: Go Fucking Nihilist (Agathocles), Huominen (Kuolema), Tornion Kevät (Terveet Kädet). On the basis of these covers you can notice out what kind of music is all about this... In my opinion - make sure - this is the best crust / punk edition published in the Balkan in 2012!!!

NAYSAYER comes out swinging with their first full length, Laid To Rest. Hardcore / Punk with influence of NYC hardcore sound, reminding the listener of MADBALL at times, but most of the time a brutal assault more similar to DEAD END PATH, TERROR, and FORFEIT. Every song on Laid To rest is a high point, there isn’t a single track that doesn’t satisfy the listener. The lyrics are really what put this album above the rest. Some people may disregard this band, seeing them as nothing more than another tough guy hardcore act, but that is anything but the truth, these guys are as real as it gets. Laid To Rest is an impressive first showing of what these guys can do and you can only expect the best from this upcoming NYHC band.

Hardcore / Crust / Sludge band from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Fucking good! The production is perfect. All the instruments and vocals come in clearly, but at the same time, there's a harsh aesthetic to the sound quality, which is totally fitting for the type of music being played here. Full recommended!

Japan's Totsugeki Sensya (on English as Attack Tank) have been a band since 1998 or earlier, and yet it seems so little due attention has been paid to them. The music is simple powerful drive, with lyrics which were written in English. Old and well-known punk threads but...fuck...this is Punk! :) One of my favorites from the bunch this kind of music, especially if we are talking about production. Fucking dirty Japanese style!!!

Hey Crust / Grind lovers, take a look on this !!!!!!!!!!!! After 10 years since the last recording, Serbian band INTAKT is active again since June 2011. Intakt play metallic Crust / Hardcore with notable Black Metal influences in both vocals and guitars. Great production and even better songs! Recommended especially for blackened Crustcore fans! If you wanna bay this awesome realise here is add: http://www.myspace.com/inhumanhomicide

Ah! What can I say about DISORDER... Absolute legend! Impressively, the 16 tracks here not only sound of a piece with the band's sterling '80s work, they're performed with just as much energy as they would have been in the band's early days. This is one blast after another of inchoate rage packaged in two-minute bursts of hyperspeed drumming, distorted guitars, and screaming vocals. Strictly for fans of the old school Punk Hardcore breaking!-

Disk contains 18 tracks, booklet with lyrics and pics. It was released by «TT-29», «RESIST LABEL» labels (Russia) in january 2012. To get disk / trade / take it on your distro write to: resist59@mail.ru

Crushing Powerviolence / D-beat / Hardcore from Tampa, Florida. Dirty raw production and 10 tracks of angry, ultra fast, much pissed off Punk. This is not a music, this is simple memorable riffs with vocals that seem to come from hell! Power that will absolutely obliterate your speakers if you’re not careful... :)

These bands definitely never disappointed! Very interesting pairing as Milwaukee's Protestant - metallic infused style of Punk / Hardcore that can jump from melodic, to aggressive, and everywhere in between whereas split mates Poland's Suffering Mind are probably the finest purveyors of straight ahead Grindcore at this time. Both bands incorporate a similar bare bones production that doesn't harm anything, and gives an old school vibe to both sides!

Holly shit!! Fantastic Crust / Hardcore band from Switzerland with members of SEDATIVE, MUMAKIL and BURNING FLESH. Founded in 2010 by Fred and Pipo, the band plays a awesome mix of many stiles metal inluenced by bands like DISFEAR, WOLFBRIGADE, TRAGEDY, DISRUPT, NASUM... This is their first demo. Six tracks against sexism, pro-lifers, racism, nationalism and all types of fascism into the scenes as well as outside... Full recommended!!!

Yet another great Swedish band. Fast and aggresive Hardcore / Punk / Noise with reaaaaaly dirty production and 9 fantastic songs of classic early 80' scandinavian Hardcore style. Very, very good stuff! If anyone has more info about the band, please share.

Tremors EP by Dead//Beat (Brooklyn, New York), one of the most violent, aggressive and sadistic acts taunting crowds in NY Punk / Hardcore scene... The band's influences are varied and include bands such as Black Flag, Dead Friends and all old school Punk / Hardcore bands from 80s... Enjoy!

This record is going to destroy many skulls, because it’s that brutal... NEGATIVE STANDARDS are not to be fucked with. You can’t put their sound in a box at all, but I will say that listening to them is like getting your head punched in by a mammoth fist. Raging aggressive Hardcore with harsh vocals that slows down from time to time… You can hear the portland influence, but they are unique!

These two bands compliment each other perfectly in the way two people who have been together for many years finish each other’s sentences, but not in that obnoxious cutesy way. ALPINIST tears through their side of this split at a frantic pace with dark melodic hardcore that strays from the typical crust sound. On side MASAKARI manic bass lines running in and out of guitars that are not only crushingly heavy, but provide an intense melodic platform for angry poetic lyrics noting the ills of modern society spit like venom by three members of the band. Amazing release.

After a nearly 10 yearsVISION OF WAR from Belgium return with a new 12" LP. Shit Parade deliver 9 tracks of raw and full throttle DOOM - influenced D-beat / Crust / Hardcore. This is dark and gloomy crustcore packed in a nice gatefold jacket, with classic artwork! Very good..

After a number of E.P.s here's finally a full length from the longest running K-Town hardcore band. A fucking massive recording mixing up classic raw Japanese and European Hardcore / Punk - adding a dose of Hellhammerish darkness and a tad of Rudimentary Peni'ish madness. Mastered at Necromorbus Studios. Nevermind the fucking description - this monster will speak for itself! Highly recommended!!
